The integration of an ES into a business environment presents a
different set of problems to the designer. First, it can be
difficult to isolate and draw boundaries around the domain of the
business problem. Second, there is often a need to generate a large
number of expert decisions in a short period of time. That is, there
can be many transactions requiring some expertise to process, such as
applications for life insurance. Finally, there may exist a number
of computerized transactions processing systems which interact with
very large databases and there may be a need to integrate the ES with
these existing systems. This paper discusses these general issues
involved in developing expert systems for business applications, with
particular examples drawn from the domain of insurance underwriting.
